The Diagnosis of Beta-Thalassemia Trait: A Review

American Journal of Hematology, 1976
AbstractDiagnostic and screening methods for beta‐thalassemia trait are reviewed in the order of their development, including identification by homozygous offspring, erythrocyte morphology, osmotic fragility, hemoglobin composition, globin synthetic rates, and red blood cell indices.

Beta Thalassemia Trait: Detection at Birth

Science, 1968
The synthesis of alpha, beta, and gamma chains in samples of cord blood was measured by the incorporation of leucine labeled with carbon-14 into these chains. In a newborn affected with beta thalassemia trait, the presence of one beta thalassemia gene was revealed on the 1st day of life by the lower specific radioactivity of the beta chain.

Studies on beta thalassemia trait in pregnancy

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1970
Abstract Beta thalassemia trait ranks second to iron deficiency as the most frequent cause of anemia of pregnancy in our clinic. The anemia of patients with thalassemia trait increases during the second trimester, as does that with normal controls.

The Iron Status of Italian Subjects with Beta-Thalassemia Trait

Acta Haematologica, 2009
Serum iron, transferrin saturation, serum ferritin and urinary iron excretion have been tested in a group of Italian subjects with beta-thalassemia trait. A number of these subjects, mostly men, had signs of increased iron load. Serum ferritin was the most sensitive index among those measured for detection of iron overload and was positively correlated

Type 3 hemochromatosis and β‐thalassemia trait

European Journal of Haematology, 2004
Abstract:Type 3 hemochromatosis is a rare autosomal recessive disorder due to mutations of the TFR2 gene. We describe clinical, biochemical and histopathologic findings of a patient with type 3 hemochromatosis at presentation and during a follow‐up of more than 20 yr and we evaluate the effect of an associated β‐thalassemia trait on phenotypic ...

The silent carrier of beta thalassemia: interaction with the typical beta thalassemic trait

Blut, 1979
The case of a girl affected by a Colley's disease of moderate severity is reported. A brother and a sister had levels of Hb F respectively of 18% and 45%. The father showed all the hematological signs of heterozygous thalassemia. The mother, however, was normal so far as osmotic fragility, red cell morphology, and Hb A2 level are concerned.

Beta Thalassemia Trait: Current status of India

International Journal of Anthropology, 2023
The genetic disorders of hemoglobin, particularly the β-thalassemias is a considerable health problem in India and contribute significantly to morbidity and mortality (Sur, et. al. 2016). Beta thalassemia is the most common inherited monogenic disorder. India forms a major part of the thalassemia belt in the world (Saha, et. al. 2020).
